Biography
Miroslav Solevic was born in Kosovo, Yugoslavia to a family of Serbs, and he became a leading Serb nationalist during the late 1980s. He took part in protests against the predominantly-Albanian communist officials in the region, even bringing in a trailer full of rocks for protesters to throw at police to provoke them into responding. On 20 April 1987, he challenged Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic to engage in dialogue with Serbs instead of monologuing. Milosevic responded by arranging a meeting with the nationalists four days later, and he found common cause with them, emerging as a nationalist leader. Kosovo Serbs became Milosevic's strike force, and their rallies toppled the leadership in Vojvodina and Montenegro. Solevic and Milosevic later had an ideological split, ending Solevic's support for Milosevic.
